The formal approval of the Secretary of Agri- culture of the building of a bridge across Gastineau | Chanel, connecting and Douglas, and the Douglas Island and Thane roads projects as revealed in The Empire last week, is indeed welcome news: to the citizens of both towns and others residing on both sides of the Channel This project is nc. listed on the Approved Project Program of the United States Forest Service and the United States| Bureau of Public Roads for future accomplishment. Just when that will be cannot be fixed with exactitude. But, under the circumstances and con- ditions, it will not be long deferred. The inclusion of the project on the approved program is conclusive proof that the Federal bureaus back of it have| given the matter very thorough consideration. Not only the need for the bridge but ways and means of financing it have been studied with satisfactory | esults. Were it otherwise, the project would néver have reached the approved stage. This means, of course, that there will be for anyone to go to Congress to get special legisla- tion to authotize the project and to get the money with which to carry it out. When the time arrives that the two bureaus are satisfied that conditions | Justify beginning construction, it is only necessary to set it up and ask for the allotment of available funds to launch the work. Juneau no need ; It cannot help but be a matter of gratification ! that the project has reached that status. The| thanks of both Juneau and Douglas are due to the bureaus, particularly the chiefs, for the interest| which has been displayed in this and has prompted | them to push it along. | JAILING THE POPULATION. Attorney General Mitchell recently reported a Federal prison population increase of 6,277 in the! nine months between June 30, 1929 and April 1 1930. The total on the former date was 19,349, and on the latter it was 25,626, an increase of more than 32 per cent There were 12,061 in Federal penitentiaries and | reformatories as compared to 10,068, a gain of almost | 2,000. And uhis increase was almost entirely com- posed of offenders of the Prohibition Law, the relative figures being 1887 and 3,698. Federal pris-| oners in local and county jails, not classified as Lo] crime, were 9,287 last June and 13,565 on April 1,} last. Mr. Mitchell was using these figures to show that Prohibition enforcement was improving. That‘ it does so prove, is a matter of viewpoint. It mlghti be suggested that after a 10-year trial at enforce- | ment, the law, if it is ever to become respected and observed by the people of the United States, would begin to show a decline in the number of | violations and comsequent convictions rather than an ever increasing number of both. | It is admitted by the Government that the question of housing its prison population is a serious problem. Now comes the President of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment with | the statement that three out of four Americans are in revolt against the law. If the Government is going to make a serious effort to convict all| those who are violating the law, it can well be seen that there is likely to be an urgent demand for more jails in which to house the population as it is lined up before the bar of justice and haled off for imprisonment. PREDATORY ANIMAL CONTROL FUNDS. Alaska is more than casually interested in leg- slation pending in the National Congress initiating a predatory animal control program arfd providing funds for its effectiveness. Wolves and coyotes for many years have been increasing in numbers and scope of range in the Territory, and the ravages made ‘by them on all forms of wild animal and hird life have been astoundingly large, surveys made by experienced Government agents have shown. The Territory has not been unmindful of this econdition. It has attempted to meet in two ways, first by the payment of bounties on both wolves and coyotes, and, second, by the use of predatory animal hunters operating against the predators and, also, training trappers in methods by which wolves and coyotes may be successfully taken. It has borne alone almost all of the cost of this work, and many thousands of dollars have' been appropriated from the Territorial treasury to defray the costs of bounties and the protective work. On a popula- tion basis, probably few States in the Union have exceeded Alaska on a per capita basis in expendi- tures for this kind of game protection. Inasmuch as {he Federal Government has re- tained to itself the right to legislate on Alaskan game angd fur-bearing animals, and Alaska furnishes, its noblest traditions, the achievement of its loftiest | institutions "upon |and the campfire; by establishing contacts with the | | birds; | s |ing the aegis of the nation as representative of its |come to know and to realize the unselfishness and |the mightiness of this American people and their |tinue to add to their security holdings. of the heavy demands. for loans on policies.
